[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We're east Asian, and sometimes there is a fine line between exerting pressure on a student to open unlock their potential, and abuse. What works with one student definitely does not with another, and that's on the parent to decide, not the teacher, because teachers don't know the student as well, and children mask their feeling during class. I have a son and daughter who react differently to different types of pressure. I parent them differently. My daughter has a music teacher that I would never, ever, foist on my son, because that would not work at all. I am present at every music lesson so I can intervene. It takes a lot of psychology and emotional accompaniment to push one's child without traumatizing them. Personally, I prefer the Art of Problem Solving to any other math training, OP, despite the fact that Kumon was developed in my native land. AoPS teaches critical thinking, unlike all the others. If you encounter a yeller or someone who sets off alarm bells, don't let your guard down. They might end up working well with your child, or not. They might work well only because you're there. Stay vigilant. [/quote] Op thank you! We are no longer local to dc so not a lot of options. [/quote]
